Hi,

I'm currently evaluating Telerik Report engine for the company I work for to see if it fits our need. So far it's all good but there's one last thing I need to confirm...

One of the report we'll generate will contains hundreds of pages divided in around 30 sections. For performance purposes, we want the user to be able to select only the report section he wants to see. Is it possible with Telerik to render only a specific part of a report?

We could divide the report in 30 reports but then the page numbers wouldn't fit so we really have to make it one report. Unless you have another solution...

Thanks,

Ben.

Hello Benoit,

Thank you for the interest to our reporting.

As we understand, you want to print separate section with page numbers from the beginning of the report. If we implement such functionality this would not speedup the rendering of the report. The reason is that processing and paging needs all data.

To cut down effectively the rendering time you can filter the data supplied to the report or filter (built-in feature) the raw data by the expression similar to the group sections you use.

I hope this helps.

All the best,
